I’ll Get There Someday

Many pathways I havedreamed

Of traveling in my brieftime,

Far too many distantplaces,

So much on a bucket list.

The distance between hereand Heaven

Not so great as one mightthink.

Perhaps just a dreamaway,

A silent stroll into themist.

Longings are buttoothless phantoms,

Fearsome shadows void offlesh,

Victims of reality

That comes to chase thedream away.

Persistence and tenacity,

Like Superman and CaptainMarvel

Arriving in the nick oftime.

… I’ll get there someday.
